Splash—
The steel longsword seemed to have encountered some evil spirit, shattering in mid-air, the shock causing Wei Linyuan's wrist to ache.
As the force in his hand lessened, the hilt of the sword slipped off.
It hit the ground with two soft thuds.
Si Jin's eyes were sharp, and she quickly noticed a few tiny spice particles left on Wei Linyuan's body.
It seems that someone's spiritual power is still stored up there, and it is being remotely controlled by the owner of this spiritual power.
Si Jin used her divine power to retrieve those particles, then easily hacked into the system and stored them in Xiao Yao's system space.
He hurriedly stepped forward to support Wei Linyuan, who was completely exhausted. After confirming that Wei Linyuan was alright, he breathed a slight sigh of relief and jokingly cursed, "Crazy!"
Wei Linyuan didn't speak, and after a moment of stunned silence, he slowly hugged Si Jin even tighter.
As if they had obtained some rare treasure, or as if they had grasped a lifeline, they wished they could embed the boy in front of them into their bones and never let go.
… …
Although Wei Linyuan's emotions had calmed down, his spiritual energy was still surging wildly and was difficult to stabilize, so he needed to take a medicinal bath to calm it down.
The servants around had all left, and the Eastern Depot and its guards were unfamiliar with the layout of the Wei residence.
Si Jin then took matters into her own hands and prepared the medicine for the Ninth Prince by fetching water from the hot spring.
Wei Linyuan quickly followed, closed the doors and windows, and took her hand by the steaming hot spring: "Jinjin, I can do it myself."
Si Jin picked up a handful of dried herbs and sprinkled them into the large hot spring. Watching them scatter like tea leaves, she found it quite amusing and simply smiled, saying, "It's alright, I'll do it."
Wei Linyuan snatched the herb basket from his hands: "I'll do it myself, how can you let your wife do this..."
As soon as she finished speaking, she realized something was wrong and hurriedly explained, "Jinjin, what I meant was..."
But at this moment, Si Jin had already put down the medicine basket and turned her head to give him a disdainful look.
"Oh, last night when you were thinking about... I wonder who it was that called out 'husband' four or five times in a row? In less than a day, they've already revealed their true feelings?"
"You should take a medicinal bath yourself!"
After saying that, he turned to leave.
Wei Linyuan quickly pulled the boy back, holding him tightly around the waist with both hands, and apologized in a hoarse voice.
"I was wrong, young master. I just didn't want you to get tired. Please don't go... hiss..."
As she spoke, she gasped again, pleading pitifully, "Look, as soon as you left, my heart started hurting terribly again. Am I going to get sick again...? Turn around and look at me..."
"Look at me, aren't I good?"
Si Jin could never bring herself to be cruel to Lin Yuan, who was ill.
Whether it's real or fake.
In the end, she obediently turned around, and just as she was about to check Wei Linyuan's pulse, he put his arm around her waist and kissed her.
"you……"
Si Jin wanted to say something, but soon, her breath, along with her reason, dissipated in the other person's kiss, whether gentle or forceful.
He casually hooked his arm around Wei Linyuan's neck, giving his heartbroken lover the best response.
The stone lions surrounding the hot spring pool behind them were still continuously releasing water.
The babbling sound masked the other faint noises.
By the time Si Jin realized what was happening, Wei Linyuan had already pulled her into the steaming hot spring.
The boy's clothes were slightly disheveled, and a few drops of water clung to his collarbone as he leaned against the edge of the hot spring, tidying up his wet long hair.
Only then did he push away the Ninth Prince who was leaning against his neck.
He scolded, "You're sick and you still can't be quiet. I'm not sick, why did you drag me down?"
Wei Linyuan held his young lover tightly, refusing to let go, and casually pointed to the herb residue that hadn't sunk on the surface of the water: "Look what's that?"
Si Jin: "The medicine."
That's why I had to pull you down.
Si Jin: ?
"You are my best medicine."
